Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 23 125
The Rural Health Care Coordination Program (HRSA-23-125) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), designed to strengthen health care delivery in rural communities through comprehensive care coordination. The program is positioned as seed funding meant to help rural communities launch and test creative, community-based approaches that expand access to care, improve coordination across providers and services, and ultimately become sustainable after the federal award period ends.
At its core, the program emphasizes building or strengthening coordinated systems of care that operate exclusively in rural areas. Applicants are expected to improve both access and quality of equitable health care services by using deliberate care coordination strategies, not just adding isolated services. A major expectation is that projects will rely on an innovative model that is evidence-based, a promising practice, and/or aligned with value-based care, with a clear connection to improved patient outcomes and better patient-centered planning and service delivery. Another central requirement is meaningful collaboration across sectors and disciplines, bringing together health care, public health, and human services partners in ways that address social determinants of health such as transportation barriers, housing instability, food insecurity, and other local factors that commonly drive poor outcomes in rural populations. Over time, projects should move beyond temporary coordination efforts and formally embed care coordination into the organization or network through updated policies, procedures, staffing roles, service workflows, and communication systems.
The grant is structured as a four-year initiative with a clear phased approach. Year one (September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2024) is dedicated to planning, while years two through four (September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2027) focus on implementation. Applicants must choose one primary clinical focus area to anchor their work: heart disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory disease, stroke, or maternal health. Even though only one primary area can be selected, applicants are encouraged to address underlying risk factors that contribute to that area, recognizing that care coordination often involves supporting people with chronic conditions and medically complex needs. Projects are expected to take a community-wide approach that links health and human services through an established or formal consortium or network, using coordinated strategies to tackle local challenges and improve population health outcomes.
By the end of the four-year period, HRSA expects awardees to show progress toward several concrete outcomes. These include expanded access to and affordability of high-quality care coordination with signs of cost savings and overall improvement in community health status; better patient outcomes supported by chronic care management and/or preventive and wellness services; and care coordination that is institutionalized rather than dependent on a grant-funded pilot team. Awardees should also have a functioning multidisciplinary and multi-sector referral system so patients can move more smoothly between clinical care and supportive services. Finally, projects must identify multiple funding and financing mechanisms to continue comprehensive care coordination after the grant ends, reinforcing the program’s emphasis on long-term sustainability rather than short-term expansion.
Eligible applicants are broad and include state, county, and local governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and private institutions of higher education; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (with additional eligibility details referenced in the full notice). HRSA anticipated making about 10 awards, with an award ceiling of $300,000. The opportunity was posted March 23, 2023, with an original closing date of May 15, 2023, under CFDA 93.912 and the health funding activity category.Apply for HRSA 23 125
